This page was proposed for deletion by L.tak (talk·contribs) on 21 February 2011 with the comment: Could not find enough establishing notability for wikipedia under WP:notability (academics). Scopus.com gives 11 papers; of which the most cited one has been cited 11 times. That would not be sufficient for inclusion on wikipedia I guess. I have left a note on generative grammar (in which tradition he falls according to this article, but where he is not mentioned) regarding his notability in December, but have received no response; so therefore I am Prod'ing it. It was contested by Phil Bridger (talk·contribs) on 2011-02-22 with the comment: Google Scholar finds papers and books with citation counts of 179, 136, 119, 101, 83 etc.
